Financial Services Department

Mission Statement

The mission of Financial Services Department is to maintain the County’s overall financial stability through sound financial planning and management. We are committed to the highest standards of accountability, timeliness, accuracy, professionalism, and innovation in providing financial services that meet the expectations of those we serve.

The Dona Ana County Financial Services Department is comprised of five major components: General Ledger compliance, Finance Operations, Budget, Purchasing, and Grant Administration. The department also provides oversight of all financial procedures for the County.

Each of these components performs tasks including: overseeing the annual comprehensive audit, asset management, payroll processing for county personnel, accounts payable processing to county vendors, various county invoices and payments, annual budget ($192 million in FY2019/2020), preparation of periodic reports, all purchasing functions, and grant oversight.

The Purchasing and Grant Administration sections each have a vital role in the department's operations and information regarding these two areas can be found on separate tabs to the right.
